    Math Major? (none / 0) (#39)

    You really are a con man, aren't you? Here's a simple fact. Federal funding to the state increased by 5 billion. The overall state budget increased by 5 billion. That means that federal funding accounted for close to 100% of the increase. The overall percentage of the state budget is irrelevant except to show the growth. Your figure of "(+15.8% or only 5.3% of the increased budget)" is completely pointless. To imply, as you do, that the increase in federal funds didn't account for almost the entire increase is dishonest at its core.

    As for the increases in the departments, why didn't you provide the breakdown of state funds? Because that would show funding has actually declined?
